In years 1-4 the students have been looking at communities and also some Kiwiana (things special to NZ). 

Hokey Pokey Ice cream is very Kiwiana as is a homemade ice cream sandwich. So following instructions closely the students made and ate their own Hokey Pokey ice cream sandwiches. Needless to say, they loved them!             

They also extended their spelling knowledge and vocabulary by being introduced to and playing different types of spelling games.

All our activities involved instructional language, the learning of new vocabulary,  lots of speaking, listening, questioning and responding appropriately, for the situation.
